Most costly decisions begin with
an inaccurate understanding of the situation.

I help leaders understand what is actually happening before major decisions are made or
resources are invested in solving the wrong problem.

  • Can we ever forgive Marion Jones?

    [This article was written 16 October 2007] And will we ever forget what she did? If you are an avid sports fan then this revelation may have affected you more than most. If you are like me –  on the sideline, “depending on the hype surrounding an event” kind of sports aficionado then you will…

  • Torn between loyalty and keeping the peace –

    Here is one woman’s fight with her truth! [ This article was published in the Trinidad and Tobago Express Woman’s Magazine in 2007] Alfred Lord Tennyson wrote: “A lie which is half a truth is ever the blackest of lies.” On the basis of what is “acceptable” many conclude that if everyone is doing or thinking…

  • Money is Sacred

    Read this in a blog post this morning and I realized that it wasn’t sitting well. Money is sacred. I kept repeating it. There seemed to be no space in my psyche holding this thought. Money has been associated with so many bad stories… People living their lives for money – who’d do anything for…

  • The “Easily Shared” Narrative May not be the REAL Story

    We LOVE a good story. Storytelling gets our attention. We are programmed if we only get the beginning and the middle to desperately want to know the end. That’s why soap operas and popular television series leave us after each episode with an incomplete storyline that will force us to tune in next time and…

  • The Importance of Reading and Keeping Your Mind OPEN

    My cousin’s oldest daughter does not read anything except that which she must! She is 14. Knowing that I am an avid reader, on a recent trip Trinidad, my cousin asked me to have a chat with her about her dislike for reading. Now I learned long ago from Dale Carnegie – that a man…

  • Why is BEING AUTHENTIC so important?

    Today was my first radio show for the year on Heartbeat radio, with host Marcia Miranda. The theme for this year’s series of programs is AUTHENTICITY. Webster’s dictionary defines authenticity as “worthy of acceptance or true to one’s own personality, spirit or character.” Are you being authentic? This is a question I actually have on…

  • What are you practicing?

    We are always practicing something. Got this idea from Susan Scott author of Fierce Leadership. Walking daily is a practice. So is watching TV. Getting up early is a practice. So is drinking tea every morning. Whatever we practice becomes habitual. Susan advises that taking a look at our practices from time to time will…

  • Do You Have a Daily THINKING Time?

    One of the books that I’m reading now is ‘The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth’ by John C. Maxwell. He promises that if we LIVE these laws we will reach our potential. It is therefore not just a book to be read through but one where you must find time to contemplate the ideas offered,…

  • 2012 in review

    Just a quick post to say “thank you” for your support. Writing can sometimes be a lonely journey but then people reach out, comment and let you know that something you said is helping them along the way. I am truly grateful for the ability to shape my thoughts into paragraphs of words that sometimes…

  • Snap Out of Auto-Pilot – Re-Enter Your Business

    “YOU possess a kind of inner force that seeks to guide you toward your Life’s Task — what you are meant to accomplish in the time that you have to live. In childhood this force was clear to you. It directed you toward activities and subjects that fit your natural inclinations — that sparked a…
